Psalms 134

The Psalter's shortest call to bless the Lord at night.

Psalms 134 - Bless the Lord by Night

Psalm 134 is the final and shortest of the songs of ascent, calling on the servants "which by night stand in the house of the LORD" to lift their hands in the sanctuary and bless Him. It closes the sequence begun many chapters earlier, following directly after Psalms 133's picture of unity.


(上行 之詩。) 耶和華的 僕人 夜間 站 在耶和華 殿中的,你們當稱頌 耶和華!

你們當向聖所 舉 手,稱頌 耶和華!

願造 天 地 的耶和華,從錫安 賜福給你們!

Its closing benediction, that the LORD "who made heaven and earth" would bless the worshiper out of Zion, mirrors the promise of a blessed household in <a href="/bible/chiun/psalms/chapter-128/5">Psalms 128:5</a>.
